My First Amazon.com Review

I love it:

"Deep thoughtfulness rides on the surface of these pages. I've read these poems over and over, and each time it feels like the first. Every page is interesting, entertaining, and thought-provoking. Wonderful work. I look forward to enjoying many future additions to LouAnn Shepard Muhm's artistry."
